Admission

Thank you for your interest in Barrie School! Our extraordinary environment for learning serves students from age 18 months - Grade 5 in our Montessori program, and Grades 6-12 in our project based learning program. Barrie students are encouraged to develop their own individual interests and talents through hands-on, experiential learning.

Begin your online application here and track the status of your application throughout the process. A non-refundable $50 application fee is required. Applications are due on January 18, 2019 to be eligible for first round decisions.

Send the appropriate teacher recommendation by entering the teacher's email address where prompted on the home screen of your account. It will be listed under "Action Items."

Download the Transcript Request form from your "Action Items" and request records from the previous two years. This is sent to the registrar of your current school and they will send it back to Barrie directly by email, mail, or fax.

Once your application is submitted, applicants for Primary 3 through grade 12 will be contacted to schedule the required student visit. During the visit, your child will spend time in class with students and teachers in the grade for which they are applying. Visits vary in length depending on age of student.

Parent Interviews are required for all applicants and are typically scheduled on the same days as student visits. Interviews typically last about 30 minutes.

Admission Decisions

The Admission office will notify you when your application file has been completed. Admission decision letters are mailed the first week of March. Following first round admission decisions, applications will be considered as space is available. During the admission process, testing may be recommended on an individual basis.
